I'll be traveling in Mexico of a couple of weeks in late September and early October. I will be taking my ten count herfador with me knowing that I will also be able to buy more when I get there. I'm not interested in carrying my ten count with me everywhere so wondering if people had good luck with the two or three finger…
I've been reading up on the joys (and inexpensiveness) of a coolidor and I think I wish to persue one myself. Here's my battle plan:1) buy a 70-qt cooler. Here's one I had in mind:http://www.walmart.com/ip/Coleman-70-Quart-Xtreme-Cooler/4807332 2) Buy 1 lb of 65% RH beads. If I did my math correctly then 70 quarts equals a…
I finally have a decent humidor, properly humidified with a hygrometer. The question is which is the better way to store the cigars' in or out of their wrappers?
So I think I found two beetles in my coolidor. 95% of my cigars are in cello. Do I need to be worried about these being infected? I looked through the few unwrapped ones and couldn't find any signs of damage. One of the beetles I found in a travel humidifying tube of the gel crystals. Then I looked up and saw one on the…
Yay!
I may be ocd about this, but I freeze everything that comes into my humi (common practice I assume round here). Yet paranoia still makes me do weekly inspections. I open all boxes, look at each cigar searching for any issues with beetles, mold, or anything else. I'm also a temp and rh nut. Least bit of deviation up or…
OK, I'd like your help to settle an argument I have with a hardheaded ignoramus of a friend. Let's say you've just acquired a sealed box of cigars and you've decided to age them, unopened, in the original box. Your humidor is large enough to store several boxes with no problem, and humidity is maintained consistently…
So I have made 3 different cigar orders (couldn't help going back on 3 separate occasions to "order more sticks") Dam n Sales get me every time :P I have received 2 of the 3, but the 3rd says on the UPS site that it will arrive Friday instead of today-Tuesday due to ...... " A late UPS trailer arrival has caused a delay.…
I am deployed, and I have just received several cigars from a friend in the states, they were shipped in a plastic bag with some humidifier packs. Here's the question, I have no humidor so what is a good plan, I have a small fridge and a small cooler, besides ammo cans and wooden ammo crates. I would appreciate any help on…
I was wondering if you purchase a new box of cigars and the wooden box of cigars is still wrapped in plastic how long do you have before you have to put those cigars in a humidor? Or can you leave them in the box for a while as long as you do not take off the wrapper and open the box? I know that the original box is not a…
